Hands-On Workshops:
Workshops get you hands-on with CrowdStrike technology and help your team
discover new ways to protect your organization in a rapidly evolving threat
landscape. Bring your laptop and get ready to learn from CrowdStrike
technical instructors! Pre-registration is required; limited
capacity.
Choose from:
1. Advanced Threat Hunting: Powered by
Threat Intelligence
2. Securing the Identity Landscape with
CrowdStrike
Advanced Threat Hunting: Powered by Threat
Intelligence
This hands-on workshop allows participants to identify threats from beyond
the perimeter. We’ll assume the role of an airline company and see how an
attack could play out. The story begins by detecting an attack and pivoting
to CrowdStrike Threat Intelligence. From there, we search the deep web and
dark web for signs of our sensitive data in the hands of malicious actors,
such as an access broker. Finally, we’ll continuously monitor these corners
of the web for any further signs of compromise.
Securing the Identity Landscape with
CrowdStrike
80% of
attacks today involve compromised credentials - does your agency have the
capabilities to stop the malicious use of valid credentials? In this
workshop, you'll learn how CrowdStrike Falcon Identity Protection gives you
actionable visibility into your identity landscape, detection of all forms
of identity based threats and flexible protection to stop breaches in
real-time.
